I think the text ends up looking like standard ASCII text if the viewer has not installed the font. What you could do is provide the HTML <font> definition with alternatives, such as Arial or Verdana, but this needs a certain amount of HTML knowledge.

The listing looks like any other to me... no fancy font or awful looking text. Normally browsers have a fall-back that if they cannot use a set font there is a default they will fall back to. It's set somewhere in the browser options and can be set to either a generic (as in on the system) serif or sans-serif font, or to a named plain face. Have a poke around in your browser options and you should find this. You should also find options to override anyone's fancy fonts and colours and use plain ones you like if you so choose. These are all part of standard browser accessibility options, as visually impaired users have problems with odd colours and fonts so need the option to disable/override them.

I do actually use Turbo Lister ~ I'd be lost without it ~ but I compose the description in Word then copy to TL and add the pictures etc.

Will have a closer look at what's available on TL in the next day or two ~ I've got time to spare as the auctions locally have been pretty dire over the last week or so and we're virtually out of stock!
